Billie B Brown is back with her old friends, Jack, Mika and Alex. They're all a little older and looking for adventure so the group decide to start a Secret Mystery Club and scour the neighbourhood looking for mysteries to uncover.

This series was developed for fans of Billie and her friends who have outgrown her adventures for beginner readers, or for those who would like more of a challenge. The Billie B Mysteries are triple the length of Billie's earlier books with a much more complex writing style and story structure for older readers, but still maintain the accessibility and child-friendliness of the original series.
